The cylindrical projections can be short and equipped with tubular sleeves which are slotted to engage with the bracket plates, and are filled with a molten polymer material after fitting. The rear faces of the panels can have a layer of an insulating material (12).

Description

La présente invention concerne un revêtement de façade utilisable pour des travaux neufs ou de rénovation par l'extérieur. Elle concerne également un procédé de fabrication du revêtement de façade selon l'invention.The present invention relates to a facade coating usable for new or renovation work from the outside. It also relates to a method of manufacture of the facade cladding according to the invention.

Le procédé et le revêtement de façade ici décrits trouveront leur application dans le domaine de la construction et du bâtiment. Dans ce domaine, en effet, il est souvent nécessaire de revêtir les façades neuves ou à rénover par exemple au moyen de plaques de parement fixées sur des rails d'accrochage.The process and cladding described here will find their application in the field of construction and building. In this area, in fact, it is often necessary to clad new facades or to renovate for example with facing plates fixed on hanging rails.

Le revêtement de façade selon l'invention pourra être mis en oeuvre sous des formes diverses et notamment pourra être utilisé pour des vêtures, des bardages ou des vêtages suivant le mode de fixation choisi et la présence ou l'absence d'un élément isolant dans le revêtement de façade.The facade cladding according to the invention can be used under various forms and in particular may be used for clothing, siding or clothing according to the chosen method of attachment and the presence or absence of an insulating element in the facade cladding.

Plusieurs problèmes sont actuellement posés dans le domaine des revêtements de façade et notamment le risque d'endommagement du revêtement par son systéme d'accroche ainsi que la fixation de manière pratique de l'ensemble des éléments constitutifs du revêtement.Several problems are currently posed in the field of facade coatings and in particular the risk of damage to the coating by its hanging system as well as the practical fixing of all the elements of the coating.

Ainsi, on connaít généralement des revêtements de façade composés de panneaux dont les chants sont rainurés, montés sur des rails horizontaux par l'intermédiaire desdites rainures.Thus, we generally know facade coatings composed of panels with grooved edges, mounted on horizontal rails through said grooves.

Les rails horizontaux sont eux mêmes fixés sur la façade soit directement, soit par l'intermédiaire de chevrons verticaux.The horizontal rails are themselves fixed on the facade either directly, either through vertical rafters.

Ce type de revêtement de façade présente différents inconvénients et en premier lieu comporte des risques d'endommagement des panneaux lors de leur montage.This type of facade cladding has various drawbacks and first place involves the risk of damaging the panels during assembly.

En effet, il s'agit d'engager les rails dans les rainures des panneaux sur l'ensemble de leur longueur. Cette opération est délicate et n'évite pas les risques de chocs ou de détérioration des plaques lors de cette opération.Indeed, it involves engaging the rails in the grooves of the panels on their entire length. This operation is delicate and does not avoid the risk of shocks or deterioration of the plates during this operation.

Un autre inconvénient de ces dispositifs actuels est qu'il existe des risques de rupture du panneau au cours de sa durée de vie.Another disadvantage of these current devices is that there are risks breakage of the panel during its lifetime.

La fixation des panneaux s'effectue actuellement sur toute leur longueur par l'intermédiaire de rails horizontaux engagés dans des rainures. Ce principe est fortement hyperstatique et risque, après le montage, de faire perdurer des contraintes résiduelles appliquées aux panneaux. Ainsi, lorsque les panneaux sont maintenus par leur bord horizontal inférieur et leur bord horizontal supérieur, ils sont coincés entre deux rails par l'intermédiaire des rainures. Si le montage n'est pas optimal ou si on observe des problèmes de dilatation des panneaux, il est fréquent que ceux-ci soient fortement sollicités en compression dans le sens vertical. Il n'est pas rare de cette façon que les panneaux soient endommagés au cours du temps par des fissures ou des ruptures.The panels are currently fixed over their entire length by means of horizontal rails engaged in grooves. This principle is strongly hyperstatic and risk, after assembly, of continuing residual stresses applied to the panels. So when the panels are held by their edge lower horizontal and their upper horizontal edge, they are wedged between two rails by through the grooves. If the assembly is not optimal or if there are problems of expansion of the panels, it is frequent that they are strongly stressed in compression in the vertical direction. It is not uncommon in this way that the panels are damaged over time by cracks or breaks.

Par ailleurs, les panneaux comportant des rainures nécessitent un usinage particulier et délicat dont les tolérances et le nombre d'opérations sont importants. En conséquence, les systèmes actuels ont l'inconvénient de nécessiter un coût d'usinage important.Furthermore, the panels having grooves require machining particular and delicate whose tolerances and the number of operations are important. In Consequently, current systems have the disadvantage of requiring a machining cost. important.

De plus, lorsque l'on monte les panneaux actuels pour former des vêtures, il est nécessaire d'ajouter au système de fixation par rail un élément de fixation supplémentaire qui a l'inconvénient d'augmenter le coût du revêtement de façade et de rendre moins pratique son montage.In addition, when we mount the current panels to form clothing, it is necessary to add a fixing element to the rail fastening system which has the disadvantage of increasing the cost of the facade cladding and make it less practical to mount.

En effet, pour les vêtures, on utilise un panneau isolant le plus souvent placé entre la façade et le panneau de parement qui constitue l'extérieur du revêtement de façade. Ce panneau isolant, selon les règles classiques de sécurité, doit être maintenu par un système d'accrochage mécanique tout comme le panneau extérieur de parement.Indeed, for clothing, we use an insulating panel most often placed between the facade and the facing panel which constitutes the exterior of the cladding facade. This insulating panel, according to conventional safety rules, must be maintained by a mechanical attachment system just like the exterior facing panel.

Ainsi, par exemple, on réalise des revêtements de façade dont le panneau isolant est maintenu par le système courant de rainures formées sur ses bords horizontaux s'engageant dans des rails fixés sur la façade. Pour maintenir les panneaux de parement extérieur, il est alors nécessaire de rajouter des éléments de fixation tels que des crochets s'adaptant sur les rails. On peut également constituer une liaison mécanique du panneau de parement dans le panneau isolant par exemple par des liaisons en queue d'aronde. Le simple assemblage du panneau isolant et du panneau de parement par collage n'est pas suffisant selon les normes en vigueur.Thus, for example, facade coatings are made, the panel of which insulation is maintained by the current system of grooves formed on its horizontal edges engaging in rails fixed on the facade. To maintain siding panels outside, it is then necessary to add fixing elements such as hooks fitting on the rails. One can also constitute a mechanical connection of the panel facing in the insulating panel for example by dovetail connections. The simple assembly of the insulating panel and the facing panel by gluing is not sufficient according to the standards in force.

Ainsi, les systèmes actuels ont l'inconvénient de nécessiter des pièces supplémentaires pour la fixation d'une part du panneau isolant et d'autre part du panneau de parement. L'utilisation sous forme de vêture a donc actuellement l'inconvénient d'augmenter le coût de réalisation et de rendre moins pratique le montage tout en allongeant le temps d'intervention sur les façades.Thus, current systems have the disadvantage of requiring parts additional for fixing on the one hand the insulating panel and on the other hand the facing. The use in the form of clothing therefore currently has the disadvantage of increasing the cost of production and making assembly less practical while extending the time of intervention on the facades.

La présente invention concerne un revêtement de façade comportant des plaques de parement et des moyens d'accrochage qui permet de pallier les inconvénients des dispositifs actuels.The present invention relates to a facade covering comprising facing plates and hanging means which overcomes the disadvantages of current devices.

L'invention a notamment pour but de permettre un accrochage résistant du revêtement de façade sur le mur à recouvrir. The invention particularly aims to allow a resistant attachment façade cladding on the wall to be covered.

Pour ce faire, le revêtement selon l'invention a l'avantage de prévoir des moyens de fixation intermédiaires entre les moyens d'accrochage et les éléments constitutifs du revêtement en lui même tels que les plaques de parement. Ce mode de montage par des moyens de fixation intermédiaires permet également de répartir les efforts appliqués par les moyens d'accrochage sur les éléments constitutifs du revêtement de façade.To do this, the coating according to the invention has the advantage of providing intermediate fixing means between the hooking means and the constituent elements of the coating itself such as the facing plates. This mounting method by intermediate fixing means also makes it possible to distribute the forces applied by the means of attachment to the constituent elements of the facade cladding.

Un autre but de l'invention est d'éviter les risques d'endommagement au montage et à l'usage du revêtement de façade.Another object of the invention is to avoid the risk of damage to the mounting and use of the facade cladding.

L'utilisation de moyens de fixation intermédiaires a pour cela l'avantage de former des éléments dont le rôle est spécifiquement de permettre le montage sur les moyens d'accrochage ; on évite ainsi toute sollicitation directe notamment sur la plaque de parement. Tout risque d'endommagement, de choc ou de fissure des panneaux est donc exclu.The use of intermediate fastening means has the advantage of form elements whose role is specifically to allow mounting on the means hanging; this avoids any direct stress, in particular on the plate facing. Any risk of damage, shock or cracking of the panels is therefore excluded.

Par ailleurs, la présente invention a également pour objectif de limiter les coûts d'usinage des revêtements de parement. Actuellement, ces coûts sont élevés par l'usinage de rainures sur les chants des panneaux. Le revêtement de façade selon l'invention a l'avantage de ne pas nécessiter l'usinage de rainures le long des plaques de parement et donc de réduire fortement les coûts.Furthermore, the present invention also aims to limit the costs of machining siding. Currently, these costs are high by the machining of grooves on the edges of the panels. The facade cladding according to the invention has the advantage of not requiring the machining of grooves along the facing plates and therefore greatly reduce costs.

Dans le cas de réalisation de revêtement de façade comportant une plaque de parement et un panneau isolant, la présente invention permet de fixer de façon simultanée ces deux éléments.In the case of facade cladding comprising a plate facing and an insulating panel, the present invention makes it possible to fix simultaneously these two elements.

Elle a l'avantage de ne nécessiter qu'un seul élément de fixation et de permettre une pose plus rapide et moins coûteuse de ce type de revêtement de façade.It has the advantage of requiring only one fixing element and allow faster and less costly installation of this type of façade cladding.

D'autres buts et avantages apparaítront au cours de la description qui va suivre, qui n'est cependant donnée qu'à titre indicatifOther objects and advantages will emerge during the description which follows. follow, which is however given only as an indication

The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing a facade cladding, characterized in that:
  • sheaths are positioned close to the periphery of the rear face of the facing plate,
  • a material such as a polymeric material is poured into the interior volume of the sheath in order to form a stud, by choosing a material for the stud compatible with that of the facing plate so that they can form chemical bonds between them,
  • the quantity of material of the pad is limited to avoid the effects of shrinkage causing reflections on the front face of the facing plate,
  • a chemical bond is made between the stud and the facing plate by taking the material from the stud,
  • the sheath is removed after the stud has been taken or it is left in place so that it cooperates with the stud to constitute the fixing means,
    in order to manufacture a facade cladding capable of being mounted quickly and with resistance, avoiding the risks of damage to the facing by the absence of direct attachment of the facing plate to the attachment means.

La présente invention concerne d'abord un revêtement de façade. Il pourra être utilisé pour des travaux neufs ou des rénovations de bâtiment ou d'autres types de construction. Le revêtement ici décrit est destiné à être placé sur les murs de façade mais un autre usage dans le domaine du bâtiment, et notamment pour l'aménagement intérieur, est envisageable.The present invention firstly relates to a facade coating. He will be able to be used for new work or building renovations or other types of construction. The coating described here is intended to be placed on the facade walls but a other use in the building sector, and in particular for interior design, is possible.

Selon l'invention, le revêtement (1) comporte tout d'abord des moyens d'accrochage (2) et des plaques de parement (3) tels que l'illustrent les figures 1 et 2 des planches de dessins situées en annexe. According to the invention, the coating (1) firstly comprises means attachment (2) and facing plates (3) as illustrated in Figures 1 and 2 of drawing plates located in the appendix.

Les moyens d'accrochage (2) pourront être des rails (2) tels qu'illustrés aux figures 1 et 2.The hooking means (2) may be rails (2) as illustrated in Figures 1 and 2.

Les rails d'accrochage sont préférentiellement des profilés horizontaux formés par exemple en aluminium, en acier ou encore en polychlorure de vinyle (PVC).The hanging rails are preferably horizontal profiles formed for example from aluminum, steel or polyvinyl chloride (PVC).

Les rails d'accrochage (2) pourront être fixés directement sur le mur de façade à recouvrir. Une autre possibilité est de placer des chevrons verticaux sur le mur de façade afin qu'ils constituent une fixation intermédiaire des rails d'accrochage (2) sur le mur de façade.The hanging rails (2) can be fixed directly to the wall facade to be covered. Another possibility is to place vertical rafters on the wall of facade so that they constitute an intermediate fixing of the hanging rails (2) on the wall of facade.

Bien entendu, le nombre et la longueur des rails d'accrochage (2) seront fonction du bâtiment à rénover et particulièrement de ses dimensions et des dimensions des plaques de parement (3).Of course, the number and the length of the hanging rails (2) will be function of the building to be renovated and particularly its dimensions and the dimensions of facing plates (3).

Tel qu'illustré aux figures 1 et 2, le rail d'accrochage peut être constitué par une paroi verticale (18) susceptible d'être positionnée en vis-à-vis de la surface du mur de façade. C'est par l'intermédiaire de cette paroi verticale (18) que, de façon générale, on fixera le rail d'accrochage sur la façade ou sur les chevrons intermédiaires.As illustrated in Figures 1 and 2, the hanging rail can be made by a vertical wall (18) capable of being positioned opposite the surface of the wall of facade. It is through this vertical wall (18) that, in general, will fix the hanging rail on the facade or on the intermediate rafters.

Le rail d'accrochage (2) peut également comporter une paroi horizontale (19) apte à être positionnée sensiblement contre l'un des chants horizontaux (20) du revêtement de façade (1).The hanging rail (2) can also have a horizontal wall (19) able to be positioned substantially against one of the horizontal edges (20) of the facade cladding (1).

Dans un premier mode de réalisation, les rails d'accrochage (2) comportent au moins une aile d'accrochage (10) pour permettre l'accrochage sur le rail (2). Comme illustrées aux figures 1 et 2, les ailes d'accrochage (10) pourront être sensiblement verticales, parallélement à la paroi verticale (18) et perpendiculairement à la paroi horizontale (19) du rail d'accrochage (2).In a first embodiment, the attachment rails (2) comprise at least one attachment wing (10) to allow attachment to the rail (2). As illustrated in Figures 1 and 2, the attachment wings (10) may be substantially vertical, parallel to the vertical wall (18) and perpendicular to the wall horizontal (19) of the hanging rail (2).

On pourra former une aile d'accrochage (10) susceptible de coopérer avec une plaque de parement (3) par sa partie haute ou sa partie basse. On peut également former au moins deux ailes d'accrochage (10) permettant pour un même rail d'accrochage (2) de coopérer avec deux plaques de parement (3) superposées. Ce mode de réalisation est notamment illustré aux figures 1, 2 et 7.We can form a hanging wing (10) capable of cooperating with a facing plate (3) by its upper part or its lower part. We can also form at least two attachment wings (10) allowing for the same attachment rail (2) to cooperate with two overlapping facing plates (3). This embodiment is particularly illustrated in Figures 1, 2 and 7.

Dans un autre mode de réalisation, les moyens d'accrochage (2) sont formés ponctuellement, en regard des moyens de fixation (7). Contrairement au rail (2), ils ne s'étendent plus tout au long du revêtement de façade (1).In another embodiment, the attachment means (2) are formed punctually, opposite the fixing means (7). Unlike the rail (2), they no longer extend throughout the facade cladding (1).

On pourra par exemple réaliser de tels moyens d'accrochage sous la forme de pattes fixées sur la façade. Ces pattes pourront présenter un profil sensiblement équivalent à celui du rail (2) pour permettre leur fixation sur la façade et l'accrochage du revêtement (1).We can for example make such attachment means in the form legs attached to the facade. These legs may have a substantially profile equivalent to that of the rail (2) to allow their fixing on the facade and the hanging of the coating (1).

Les pattes pourront encore coopérer avec des inserts encastrés dans les moyens de fixation (7) afin de réaliser l'accrochage.The legs can still cooperate with inserts embedded in the fixing means (7) in order to carry out the attachment.

Les plaques de parement (3) permettent de constituer l'aspect extérieur du revêtement de façade (1). Les plaques de parement (3) seront généralement constituées par des panneaux de faible épaisseur par exemple de préférence de l'ordre de 5 millimètres dans un mode d'exécution non limitatif. Différents matériaux sont utilisables pour réaliser les plaques de parement (3) tels que des matériaux polymères, par exemple du polyester. Les dimensions des plaques de parement (3) ne sont pas limitées mais dans la pratique on utilise des plaques de parement (3) pouvant être facilement manipulées tout en constituant des éléments esthétiques sur la façade. On peut former des plaques de parement sensiblement de surface carrée de 600 millimètres x 600. Le nombre de plaques de parement (3) à utiliser est bien entendu fonction de la surface du mur de façade à recouvrir.The facing plates (3) make it possible to constitute the external appearance of the facade cladding (1). The facing plates (3) will generally be constituted by thin panels for example preferably of the order of 5 millimeters in a non-limiting mode of execution. Different materials can be used to make the facing plates (3) such as polymeric materials, for example polyester. The dimensions of the facing plates (3) are not limited but in practice we use facing plates (3) which can be easily handled while constituting aesthetic elements on the facade. Facing plates can be formed substantially of square surface of 600 millimeters x 600. The number of facing plates (3) to be used is of course depending on the surface of the front wall to be covered.

Telle qu'illustrée à la figure 1, la plaque de parement (3) comprend une face avant (5) constituant l'extérieur du revêtement de façade (1) et une face arrière (6).As shown in Figure 1, the facing plate (3) includes a front face (5) constituting the exterior of the facade covering (1) and a rear face (6).

Le revêtement de façade (1) selon l'invention présente également des moyens de fixation (7) constituant des éléments intermédiaires entre les moyens d'accrochage (2) et la plaque de parement (3). Les moyens de fixation (7) intermédiaires évitent toute pose directe de la plaque de parement (3) sur le moyens d'accrochage (2) et permettent ainsi de supprimer les risques d'endommagement du parement lors de son montage ou de son usage.The facade cladding (1) according to the invention also has fixing means (7) constituting intermediate elements between the means hooking (2) and the facing plate (3). Intermediate fixing means (7) avoid any direct installation of the facing plate (3) on the attachment means (2) and thus eliminate the risk of damage to the facing during its mounting or its use.

La figure 1 illustre un mode de réalisation des moyens de fixation (7). Suivant cette possibilité, les moyens de fixation (7) comprennent un ou plusieurs plots (8). Ces plots (8) sont préférentiellement placés en périphérie (4) des plaques de parement (3). Les plots (8) sont solidaires de la face arrière (6).Figure 1 illustrates an embodiment of the fixing means (7). According to this possibility, the fixing means (7) comprise one or more studs (8). These studs (8) are preferably placed on the periphery (4) of the facing plates (3). The studs (8) are integral with the rear face (6).

La solidarisation des plots (8) et de la plaque de parement (3) peut être effectuée de diverses manières. Dans un mode de réalisation, il est possible de constituer, par exemple par moulage, la plaque de parement et les plots dans une seule pièce. Il est également possible de couler le plot sur la face arrière (6) de la plaque de parement et de former ainsi une liaison chimique entre ces deux éléments. Tout autre moyen d'encastrement du plot (8) sur la plaque de parement (3) est envisageable tel que le collage ou encore des inserts ou des vis. The connection of the studs (8) and the facing plate (3) can be performed in various ways. In one embodiment, it is possible to constitute, for example by molding, the facing plate and the studs in a single piece. It is also possible to cast the stud on the rear face (6) of the facing plate and thus form a chemical bond between these two elements. Any other means of embedding the stud (8) on the facing plate (3) is possible such as bonding or inserts or screws.

Le nombre et la position des plots ne sont pas limités mais préférentiellement, on formera les plots (8) en périphérie (4) de la plaque de parement (3) et plus précisément à proximité des bords horizontaux de la plaque de parement (3). Le nombre de plots n'est pas limité mais sera de préférence choisi de façon à permettre la bonne résistance de l'accrochage du revêtement de façade (1) tout en évitant de devoir former de nombreux plots (8) sur la face arrière (6). Ainsi, suivant le mode de réalisation illustré à la figure 4, on forme trois plots à proximité de chaque bord horizontal de la plaque de parement (3).The number and position of the studs are not limited but preferably, the studs (8) will be formed at the periphery (4) of the facing plate (3) and more precisely near the horizontal edges of the facing plate (3). The number of studs is not limited but will preferably be chosen so as to allow the correct resistance of the cladding of the facade cladding (1) while avoiding having to form numerous studs (8) on the rear face (6). Thus, according to the embodiment illustrated in the FIG. 4, three studs are formed near each horizontal edge of the plate facing (3).

Différents matériaux sont envisageables pour les plots (8) tels que des matériaux polymères et notamment un matériau compatible avec la plaque de parement (3) afin de pouvoir constituer des liaisons chimiques. Notamment, on pourra utiliser des plots (8) en polyester.Different materials are possible for the studs (8) such as polymer materials and in particular a material compatible with the facing plate (3) in order to be able to form chemical bonds. In particular, we can use studs (8) polyester.

La forme des plots (8) n'est pas non plus limitée. Des plots de forme cylindrique ou encore de section carrée sont réalisables. Une autre section des plots est envisagée à la figure 8.The shape of the studs (8) is also not limited. Shape studs cylindrical or square section are achievable. Another section of the studs is seen in Figure 8.

Le revêtement de façade (1) selon l'invention peut également comprendre des gaines (9) entourant les plots (8). Les gaines (9) par exemple illustrées à la figure 1 permettent d'abord de former les plots en coulant de la matière dans leur volume intérieur. Elles constituent également un élément coopérant avec les plots (8) afin de former les moyens de fixation (7).The facade cladding (1) according to the invention can also comprise sheaths (9) surrounding the studs (8). The sheaths (9) for example illustrated in Figure 1 first allow the studs to be formed by pouring material into their interior volume. They also constitute an element cooperating with the studs (8) in order to form the fixing means (7).

Les gaines (9) pourront être en divers matériaux et notamment en polychlorure de vinyle. Elles seront généralement constituées par des tubes cylindriques creux s'adaptant au diamètre extérieur des plots (8).The sheaths (9) may be made of various materials and in particular of polyvinyl chloride. They will generally consist of cylindrical tubes hollow adapting to the outside diameter of the studs (8).

Selon la figure 2, afin de solidariser efficacement la gaine (9) et le plot (8), on forme un rebord (11) orienté vers le volume intérieur de la gaine (9). Le rebord (11) sera particulièrement utile lorsque le plot (8) est réalisé par coulée de matière dans le volume intérieur de la gaine (9). De cette façon, une fois que la matière du plot (8) est solidifiée, la plaque de parement (3), le plot (8) et la gaine (9) constituent un ensemble d'un seul tenant.According to FIG. 2, in order to effectively secure the sheath (9) and the stud (8), forming a rim (11) oriented towards the interior volume of the sheath (9). The edge (11) will be particularly useful when the stud (8) is produced by pouring material into the volume inside of the sheath (9). In this way, once the material of the pad (8) is solidified, the facing plate (3), the stud (8) and the sheath (9) constitute a whole in one piece.

Selon le mode de réalisation illustré à la figure 2, les plots (8) sont entourés par une gaine (9) et le rail d'accrochage (2) comprend au moins une aile d'accrochage (10). Le plot (8) et la gaine (9) présentent une rainure verticale (16) permettant de recevoir l'aile d'accrochage (10). La rainure (16) sera formée sur la longueur du plot (8) et de la gaine (9) de façon à pouvoir facilement coopérer avec l'aile d'accrochage (10). Bien entendu, la rainure (16) peut être formée sur le plot (8) même si celui-ci n'est pas entouré d'une gaine (9) tel que l'illustre la figure 3. Le mode de fixation ici décrit est identique avec ou sans présence de gaine (9).According to the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 2, the studs (8) are surrounded by a sheath (9) and the hanging rail (2) comprises at least one wing attachment (10). The stud (8) and the sheath (9) have a vertical groove (16) allowing to receive the attachment wing (10). The groove (16) will be formed along the length the stud (8) and the sheath (9) so that it can easily cooperate with the attachment wing (10). Of course, the groove (16) can be formed on the stud (8) even if the latter is not surrounded by a sheath (9) as illustrated in FIG. 3. The method of attachment described here is identical with or without presence of sheath (9).

Suivant un autre mode de réalisation, les plots (8) sont entourés par une gaine (9) mais la longueur de la gaine (9) est supérieure à celle des plots (8). Suivant cette possibilité illustrée à la figure 2, la gaine (9) comporte une rainure (16) dans sa partie s'étendant au-delà du plot (8). La rainure (16) permet de recevoir l'aile d'accrochage (10).According to another embodiment, the studs (8) are surrounded by a sheath (9) but the length of the sheath (9) is greater than that of the studs (8). Next this possibility illustrated in Figure 2, the sheath (9) has a groove (16) in its part extending beyond the stud (8). The groove (16) accommodates the attachment wing (10).

Une autre possibilité de montage du rail d'accrochage (2) sur les plaques de parement (3) est envisageable. Dans ce cas, le montage s'effectue par les moyens de fixation (7) intermédiaires qui sont fixés sur le rail d'accrochage (2) au moyen d'insert ou de vis. Notamment, le vissage des moyens de fixation (7) pourra être effectué sur la paroi verticale (18) des rails d'accrochage (2). Lorsque les moyens de fixation (7) comprennent des plots (8), le vissage sera effectué dans la matière des plots (8).Another possibility of mounting the hanging rail (2) on the plates facing (3) is possible. In this case, the assembly is carried out by means of fixing (7) intermediates which are fixed on the hanging rail (2) by means of insert or screw. In particular, the fastening means (7) can be screwed onto the wall vertical (18) of the hanging rails (2). When the fixing means (7) comprise studs (8), the screwing will be carried out in the material of the studs (8).

On peut ainsi former par exemple des bardages ou des vêtages avec une pose rapide et évitant tout risque d'endommagement des plaques de parement.We can thus form for example cladding or cladding with a quick installation and avoiding any risk of damage to the facing plates.

Comme l'illustrent les figures 5 et 6, les moyens d'accrochage (2) peuvent être fixés sur un isolant (24) ou encore sur une ossature verticale (25) permettant de ménager une ventilation verticale.As illustrated in FIGS. 5 and 6, the attachment means (2) can be fixed on an insulator (24) or on a vertical frame (25) allowing provide vertical ventilation.

On peut également utiliser la présente invention dans le cas de la réalisation de vêtures. Lorsqu'il est nécessaire d'adjoindre au revêtement de façade (1) un panneau isolant (12), celui-ci pourra parfaitement être intégré dans le revêtement de façade (1) selon l'invention.The present invention can also be used in the case of making clothes. When it is necessary to add to the facade cladding (1) a insulating panel (12), it can be perfectly integrated into the facade cladding (1) according to the invention.

Tel qu'illustré aux planches de dessin, un panneau isolant (12) peut être placé à l'arrière des plaques de parement (3). De façon courante, les panneaux isolants (12) seront appliqués sur la face arrière des plaques de parement.As illustrated in the drawing boards, an insulating panel (12) can be placed behind the facing plates (3). Insulating panels (12) are commonly used will be applied to the rear face of the facing plates.

L'épaisseur des panneaux isolants pourra être variable suivant les caractéristiques d'isolation nécessaires. Il faudra néanmoins adapter l'épaisseur du panneau isolant (12) à la réalisation des moyens de fixation (7). Le panneau isolant (12) pourra être en divers matériaux et notamment en polystyrène. Ses longueur et largeur seront sensiblement équivalentes à celles des plaques de parement (3).The thickness of the insulating panels may be variable depending on the required insulation characteristics. However, it will be necessary to adapt the thickness of the panel insulator (12) in the production of the fixing means (7). The insulating panel (12) can be in various materials and in particular in polystyrene. Its length and width will substantially equivalent to those of the facing plates (3).

Le panneau isolant (12) peut présenter à proximité de sa partie basse un retrait (17) tel qu'illustré aux figures 3 et 4 notamment. Ce retrait permet d'introduire la paroi verticale (18) du rail d'accrochage (2). Ainsi, le rail d'accrochage ne dépasse pas ou très peu de l'épaisseur du panneau isolant (12).The insulating panel (12) may have near its lower part a withdrawal (17) as illustrated in Figures 3 and 4 in particular. This withdrawal makes it possible to introduce the vertical wall (18) of the hanging rail (2). Thus, the hanging rail does not protrude or very little of the thickness of the insulating panel (12).

Le panneau isolant (12) est positionné par l'intermédiaire des moyens de fixation (7). Dans le cas où ces moyens comportent des plots (8) et éventuellement des gaines (9), le panneau isolant (12) comprend des trous débouchants (21) illustrés à la figure 4 et coopérant avec les plots (8) et éventuellement les gaines (9).The insulating panel (12) is positioned by means of the fixing (7). In the case where these means include studs (8) and possibly sheaths (9), the insulating panel (12) comprises through holes (21) illustrated in the figure 4 and cooperating with the pads (8) and possibly the sheaths (9).

Il est ainsi possible d'engager les plots (8) et éventuellement les gaines (9) dans l'épaisseur du panneau isolant (12) afin de positionner celui-ci.It is thus possible to engage the studs (8) and possibly the sheaths (9) in the thickness of the insulating panel (12) in order to position it.

Afin de compléter cette mise en position, il est également possible de donner au plot une forme particulière permettant d'encastrer le panneau isolant (12).In order to complete this positioning, it is also possible to give the stud a particular shape allowing the insulating panel (12) to be embedded.

Ainsi, suivant le mode de réalisation illustré à la figure 3, le plot (8) et éventuellement la gaine (9) présentent un rétrécissement de section (22) vers la face arrière (6) de la plaque de parement (3).Thus, according to the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 3, the stud (8) and possibly the sheath (9) has a narrowing section (22) towards the rear face (6) of the facing plate (3).

De cette façon, le panneau isolant (12) est coincé entre la plaque de parement (3) et la section la plus grande du plot (8).In this way, the insulating panel (12) is wedged between the plate facing (3) and the largest section of the stud (8).

Afin de compléter la fonction d'isolation du revêtement de façade (1) pour réalisation de vêtures, il est possible de surmonter les plots (8) et les gaines (9) d'un bouchon (14) tel que cela est illustré aux figures 1, 2 et 3 des planches de dessins.In order to complete the insulation function of the facade cladding (1) for clothing, it is possible to overcome the studs (8) and the sheaths (9) of a plug (14) as illustrated in Figures 1, 2 and 3 of the drawing boards.

Le bouchon (14) aura des formes et dimensions adaptées afin de s'insérer dans les trous débouchants (21) formés dans l'épaisseur du panneau (12). Les bouchons (14) pourront soit surmonter les gaines (9) et les plots (8) soit, dans le cas illustré à la figure 2, s'engager à l'intérieur de la gaine (9) préférentiellement jusqu'au contact du plot (8).The plug (14) will have shapes and dimensions adapted to fit in the through holes (21) formed in the thickness of the panel (12). Corks (14) can either overcome the sheaths (9) and the studs (8) or, in the case illustrated in FIG. 2, engage inside the sheath (9) preferably until contact with the stud (8).

De cette façon, l'isolation est totalement constituée sur l'ensemble de la surface du revêtement (1).In this way, the insulation is completely formed over the entire coating surface (1).

On pourra utiliser différents matériaux pour le bouchon (14) et préférentiellement un matériau identique à celui du panneau isolant (12) tel que du polystyrène.We can use different materials for the cap (14) and preferably a material identical to that of the insulating panel (12) such as polystyrene.

Dans le cas illustré à la figure 2, le rail d'accrochage (2) coopère avec la gaine (9) par l'intermédiaire de l'aile d'accrochage (10). Pour effectuer le montage du bouchon (14), il faut alors former une rainure dans le volume du bouchon.In the case illustrated in FIG. 2, the attachment rail (2) cooperates with the sheath (9) by means of the attachment wing (10). To mount the plug (14), it is then necessary to form a groove in the volume of the plug.

Le revêtement de façade (1) ici décrit permet, par la présence de moyens de fixation (7) intermédiaires, un montage rapide, résistant et évitant les risques d'endommagement du parement. La plaque de parement (3) et les moyens de fixation (7), pouvant être des gaines (9) entourant des plots (8), forment un ensemble parfaitement solidaire et monobloc. De cette façon, le maintien par l'intermédiaire de l'aile d'accrochage (10) et d'une rainure (16) formée sur la gaine (9), ou sur la gaine (9) et le plot (8), permet un montage rapide et efficace de la plaque de parement. Par ailleurs, dans le cas d'utilisation d'un panneau isolant (12), celui-ci est parfaitement maintenu dans le sens vertical par l'intermédiaire des plots (8) et éventuellement des gaines (9). Tout mouvement horizontal lui est également interdit puisqu'il est bloqué par l'aile d'accrochage (10). En effet, tel qu'illustré à la figure 3, la rainure (16) s'étend à la matière du plot (8) et également à la matière du panneau isolant (12).The facade cladding (1) described here allows, by the presence of means fastening (7) intermediate, quick assembly, resistant and avoiding risks facing damage. The facing plate (3) and the fixing means (7), may be sheaths (9) surrounding studs (8), form a perfectly integral and monobloc. In this way, the maintenance by means of the attachment wing (10) and a groove (16) formed on the sheath (9), or on the sheath (9) and the stud (8), allows quick and efficient mounting of the facing plate. Furthermore, in the case of use an insulating panel (12), this is perfectly maintained in the vertical direction by through the studs (8) and possibly the sheaths (9). Any horizontal movement it is also prohibited since it is blocked by the attachment wing (10). Indeed, such that illustrated in FIG. 3, the groove (16) extends to the material of the stud (8) and also to the material of the insulating panel (12).

La présente invention concerne également un procédé de fabrication d'un revêtement de façade (1).The present invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a facade cladding (1).

Cette fabrication commence dans un premier temps par le positionnement de gaines (9) à proximité de la périphérie (4) de la face arrière (6) de la plaque de parement (3). Si on utilise des gaines (9) telles qu'illustrées aux figures 1 et 2, ce positionnement s'effectue par simple appui de la gaine (9) sur la face arrière (6).This manufacturing begins with positioning sheaths (9) near the periphery (4) of the rear face (6) of the facing plate (3). If sheaths (9) are used as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, this positioning is carried out by simply pressing the sheath (9) on the rear face (6).

On place bien évidemment autant de gaines (9) que l'on juge nécessaires, préférentiellement à proximité des bords horizontaux de la plaque de parement (3).We obviously place as many sheaths (9) as we deem necessary, preferably near the horizontal edges of the facing plate (3).

Comme indiqué précédemment, on choisit une matière compatible avec celle de la plaque de parement (3) afin de former le plot (8). De cette façon, la matière du plot (8) et celle de la plaque de parement (3) peuvent former des liaisons chimiques.As indicated above, we choose a material compatible with that of the facing plate (3) in order to form the stud (8). In this way, the material of the stud (8) and that of the facing plate (3) can form chemical bonds.

Par exemple, on utilise un matériau polymère tel qu'une résine polyester aussi bien pour la plaque de parement (3) que pour le plot (8). On coule cette matière dans le volume intérieur de la gaine (9) afin de former le plot (8).For example, a polymer material such as a polyester resin is used both for the facing plate (3) and for the stud (8). We pour this material in the interior volume of the sheath (9) in order to form the stud (8).

De façon préférentielle, on limite la quantité de matière du plot (8) afin d'éviter les effets de retrait. Ces effets provoquent des reflets sur la face avant (5) de la plaque de parement (3).Preferably, the quantity of material of the pad (8) is limited so as to avoid withdrawal effects. These effects cause reflections on the front face (5) of the facing plate (3).

Cette limitation de quantité de matière est particulièrement avantageuse puisqu'elle améliore l'aspect esthétique du revêtement de façade (1). En effet, lorsque l'on utilise une quantité de matière trop importante pour le plot (8), il s'effectue lors de son refroidissement des effets de retrait provoquant un léger reflet sur la face avant (5) de la plaque de parement (3). Une faible épaisseur du plot (8) permet d'éviter ces effets.This limitation of the quantity of material is particularly advantageous since it improves the aesthetic appearance of the facade cladding (1). When we uses too much material for the stud (8), it is carried out during its cooling of the withdrawal effects causing a slight reflection on the front face (5) of the facing plate (3). A small thickness of the stud (8) makes it possible to avoid these effects.

Une fois la quantité de matière voulue coulée, on réalise une liaison chimique entre le plot (8) et la plaque de parement (3) par la prise de la matière du plot (8). L'utilisation d'un matériau polymère tel qu'une résine polyester permet d'effectuer cette opération.Once the desired quantity of material has been poured, a bond is made chemical between the stud (8) and the facing plate (3) by taking the material from the stud (8). The use of a polymer material such as a polyester resin allows this to be done. surgery.

Lorsque le plot (8) est durci et solidarisé à la plaque de parement (3), on peut alors suivant un premier mode de réalisation retirer la gaine (9). Dans ce cas, la gaine (9) ne constitue qu'un moule et qu'un guide pour la coulée du plot.When the stud (8) is hardened and secured to the facing plate (3), can then according to a first embodiment remove the sheath (9). In this case, the sheath (9) is only a mold and a guide for casting the stud.

Dans un autre mode de réalisation, on laisse en place la gaine (9) afin que celle-ci coopère avec le plot (8) pour constituer les moyens de fixation (7).In another embodiment, the sheath (9) is left in place so that it cooperates with the stud (8) to form the fixing means (7).

Le revêtement de façade (1) ainsi fabriqué assure une liaison efficace entre les moyens de fixation (7) et la plaque de parement (3).The facade covering (1) thus produced ensures an effective connection between the fixing means (7) and the facing plate (3).

Il s'agit ensuite de former des rainures (16) sur les plots (8) et éventuellement les gaines (9). Dans le cas de l'utilisation d'un panneau isolant (12) et éventuellement de bouchons (14), cette réalisation sera préférentiellement formée dans une étape jointe pour faire correspondre la rainure (16) formée dans la matière de la gaine (9), du plot (8), du panneau isolant (12) ou de la gaine (9), du bouchon (14) et du panneau isolant (12).It is then a question of forming grooves (16) on the studs (8) and possibly the sheaths (9). In the case of the use of an insulating panel (12) and possibly plugs (14), this embodiment will preferably be formed in a joint step to match the groove (16) formed in the material of the sheath (9), the stud (8), the insulating panel (12) or the sheath (9), the plug (14) and the panel insulator (12).

Le revêtement de façade (1) ainsi fabriqué peut alors être facilement mis en place sur les façades par l'intermédiaire des moyens d'accrochage (2), soit au moyen de vis ou d'inserts, soit par l'intermédiaire d'ailes d'accrochage (10) coopérant avec la rainure (16).The facade cladding (1) thus produced can then be easily put on in place on the facades by means of the hooking means (2), either by means of screws or inserts, either by means of attachment wings (10) cooperating with the groove (16).

Les rails d'accrochage (2) peuvent comporter une ou deux ailes d'accrochage (10). Ce dernier cas permet d'accrocher le revétement de façade (1) par ses bords supérieur et inférieur.The hanging rails (2) may have one or two wings attachment (10). The latter case allows the cladding of the facade (1) to be hung upper and lower edges.

Par ailleurs, on pourra former des chambres de décompression (23) sur les chants (20) afin de permettre la retenue et l'évacuation de l'eau ou de l'humidité. Les chambres (23) seront par exemple constituées par deux demi-rainures formées sur les bords supérieurs et inférieurs des panneaux isolants (12).Furthermore, it is possible to form decompression chambers (23) on the edges (20) to allow the retention and evacuation of water or moisture. The chambers (23) will for example consist of two half-grooves formed on the edges upper and lower insulating panels (12).
